Chapter 272: Chapter 130: Ancestral Hall
Zhang Xuan pondered, and the eyes of the others also fell upon the two of them.
“You an to say this guy, only at the Dharma Form Realm, just defeated Su Yunzhe with a single slap?”
The girl with an elegant deanor looked at Fu Qingqing with a questioning gaze filled with incredulity.
“Yes, Yingying, you must help get revenge!”
Fu Qingqing lowered her voice, “Once there’s a competition segnt later, make sure Yan Sansan teaches this guy a lesson! He should be beaten until he can’t take care of himself.”
“Alright! I will have Yan Sansan take action later…”
Fu Jingjing nodded, “However… we still don’t know the content of the examination. If there isn’t a competition, I won’t be able to avenge you.”
“Hehe, as long as you’ve agreed, I’m relieved. We’ll find an opportunity!” Fu Qingqing nodded with a smiling face.
As the two were speaking, an old woman with a cane ca over, glanced around, and bowed slowly towards Zhang Xuan and the others, “You all are well-known talents from Zouyi City. According to the agreent, the assessnt was supposed to be in seven days, but unexpectedly, Divine Domain Flowing Colors appeared in the sky. In order not to miss the opportunity, our Fu Family has decided to advance the assessnt. If we have been abrupt, we hope for your understanding!”
“Where would the Fu clan head say such things!”
“To be favored by Miss Fu is our honor…”
Everyone answered with smiles.
Zhang Xuan looked at the talking old woman. In terms of strength, she might not be as powerful as Shi Yunjing or Qian Yuhuan, but the Fu Family, skilled in the Fox Charm, could align themselves with unknown numbers of forces, certainly not to be underestimated by even the royalty.
According to what Min Jiangtao said, two of the Vice Hall Masters of the Heaven Mandate Hall were son-in-laws of the Fu Family… This alone was telling.
“This is our family’s clan head, but she is not my grandmother, she is my great aunt. My grandmother, Number Four, passed away a few years ago…”
Fu Yingying’s voice transmission ca through.
“Condolences!” Zhang Xuan offered a word of comfort.
Fu Yingying said, “Originally, the old family matriarch intended to leave the position of clan head to my grandmother, but for so unknown reason, the great aunt succeeded. Since then… our branch has always been marginalized. To avoid trouble, I went to Han Yuan City at a young age and hardly ever returned because without guidance by my side, I haven’t been able to break through… Fu Qingqing is the great aunt’s granddaughter, and perhaps because of my grandmother, has always viewed unfavorably…”
Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.
No wonder, as sisters, they were sarcastic to each other from the mont they t. It turned out there were conflicts from the older generation.
The old woman continued, “Although it’s advanced, our Fu Family won’t treat any of you unfairly. Regardless of who ultimately earns the right to inherit the fragnts of the heavens, all who participate in the assessnt will enter Zhilan Valley with the Fu Family. The artifacts to be found will be shared amongst us!”
“That’s truly wonderful!”
“The Fu Family is noble and admirable…”
Everyone’s eyes lit up, especially Yan Sansan, full of excitent.
He was able to be chard by Fu Jingjing largely because of this opportunity.
Zhilan Valley, ranked 21st in the Heaven Mandate Domain, known for its abundance of treasures. The Yan Family didn’t have strong roots in Zouyi, and charging in recklessly would make them easy targets. With the Fu Family’s backing, even those who sought trouble would have to think twice.
The Fu clan head said, “There’s no need for more pleasantries. The assessnt is related to the succession of our family’s fragnts of the heavens, and everything will be decided by the Matriarch. Please, follow to the ancestral hall.”
“Yes!”
Everyone followed closely behind the old woman and soon arrived at the ancestral hall, a small courtyard with many ancestral tablets. Beside them, an elderly woman with white hair lay motionless on a bench, her eyes tightly closed.
“Mother…”
The Fu clan head approached, lowered her voice, “The candidates for the examination have arrived!”
The white-haired old woman slowly opened her eyes, looking over at the people in front of her, and finally rested her gaze on Yan Sansan with a nod of satisfaction, “A good talent has shown up. It seems that the efforts of twenty years ago weren’t in vain…”
“Mother Matriarch’s strategies are faultless, naturally…”
The Fu clan head smiled gently.
“Let them introduce themselves first. It’s been twenty years, and I don’t recognize any of them…”
The white-haired old woman motioned with her hand.
The Fu clan head nodded, stood up straight and looked around, “The Matriarch wishes to et you all. Please introduce yourselves.”
“Greetings to the Matriarch and clan head. I am Fu Jingjing, and this here is Yan Sansan, the first talent of Zouyi City, only sixteen years old, already at the Galaxy Realm primary stage!”
Fu Jingjing took the lead, smiling as she introduced, and Yan Sansan stepped forward with pride.
“Greetings to the Matriarch and clan head. I am Fu Weiwei, and this is the Seventh Prince of Zouyi Royal City, Shen Wujun, twenty-seven years old, has reached the primary stage of 3-dan in the Galaxy Realm!”
“Greetings to the Matriarch and clan head. I am Fu Qingqing, and this is Su Yunzhe…”
Everyone began their introductions.
After listening for a while, Zhang Xuan marveled.
Among the chard youths were either the top three talents on the potential list or princes of the royalty, and one was even the son of the Hall Master of the Stone Palace…
Not to ntion the others, just these few people nearly covered the most powerful forces of the entire Zhou Yi Dynasty.
Soon it was Fu Yingying’s turn.
“…I am Fu Yingying. This is Zhang Xuan, newly arrived in Zouyi Royal City from Han Yuan City, his cultivation… is at the pinnacle of the Dharma Form Realm!”
“Dharma Manifestation Realm Peak? And from Han Yuan City too, with no strength, no backing?”
“With such cultivation, is the need for charm? Just a beckon and a bunch would co over right?”
“Not even qualified to be a flatterer, and Yingying actually brought him to participate in the examination? Is she planning to give up just like that?”
Everyone snickered.
As a mber of the Fu Family, without using the Fox Charm Destiny, just by saying a na, people of this level would flock to them. Only Fu Yingying would bring soone directly.
“Dharma Manifestation Realm Peak? Since when can soone of this cultivation level mix into our Fu Family’s core disciple examination?”
The Fu clan head showed displeasure.
As core disciples who went through bloodline baptism from a young age, even if their talents weren’t that high and they couldn’t allure soone better, they still shouldn’t settle for soone this poor, right?
Seeing herself looked down upon, Fu Yingying’s face flushed with embarrassnt, and she stepped forward, “Zhang Xuan’s strength is not high, but… just now, he easily defeated Su Yunzhe, who Fu Qingqing brought!”
Frowning, the Fu clan head looked over, “Qingqing, is what Yingying said true?”
Fu Qingqing hurriedly explained, “Yunzhe is at least seven or eight years younger than him, with shorter practice ti. In terms of talent, he’s definitely stronger than the old man she brought…”
“Talent is judged by potential, by the future. To take advantage of one’s age and bully the young, not only does he lack talent, his character doesn’t seem to be that great either!”
Looking at Zhang Xuan once more, the Fu clan head snorted in her heart, her eyes filled with disdain.
Unlike her thoughts, the Matriarch also looked towards Zhang Xuan, and couldn’t help but utter an “Oh.”
